Am planning on going up to Seqouia for a few days in May (for camping and day hikes not backpacking). I'm thinking of going to Mineral King, but not sure what...
I simply love Mineral King. It's those special places that only few campers know about. During May there will be snow on many of the trails though it should be...
Mineral Kings is the most beautiful place you can drive to in Sequoia NP, IMHO. If you like Lodgepole you'll like Crystal Spring. And if you like Giant...
I'm a die hard Mineral King girl, but lots of people find the road into the valley makes them crazy and the valley too rolling. To each his own. There are...
Assuming I've done the cut/paste correctly. These are pix of Mineral King area, 2001-2002, various trips. Sawtooth was a nice climb - but don't lose your map...
Here's a webcam that shows current conditions at Mineral King: http://www.mk-webcam.net/ At Lodgepole the snow is still down pretty low - maybe down as low as ...
IMO, there is no question that Mineral King is one of the best parts of the park. There are some great day hikes up there as well as backpacking. Be prepared,...
Mineral King is awesome. You should definitely check it out. If you are only able see it on a day trip, you will want to return and go on a multi-day backpack...
Mount Wilson is my favorite hike with great elevation gain, accessibility, and a sheer wealth of trails that climb to the top. I have hiked it pretty much...
This Saturday we're doing our annual trek from the Village to Baldy to the Three T's and out Icehouse. If any of you have been up there recently, can you let...
HI Ed, This past Sunday I hiked the loop in Icehouse up to Cedar Glenn camp and then toward Ice House Saddle then back to the trail head (didn't go to the...
Winter Creek is a nice trail.... the entire area is beautiful. This and the Old Mt. Wilson trail are nice in summer as there is substantial shade in the...
Thanks Steve. Timber and Icehouse were my only real concerns as most of the Village Trail is exposed and appears snow-free. Looks like we're good to go! Edd...
I just moved out to SOCAL last July and have had my heart set on hiking Mt Whitney since coming out. I was wondering if there are small groups of people that...
That is something I am also interested in doing. REI Arcadia is haveing a clinic on Mt. Whitney this coming Wednesday at 7pm. I'm sure there will be a lot of...
Here's the official info on Whitney: http://www.fs.fed.us/r5/inyo/recreation/wild/mtwhitney.shtml The hike up Whitney's main trail is a beautiful hike and a...
It a very heavily traveled trail. The hardest part in opinion is getting a permit. The trail has daily quota. They have a lottery every year for permits....
This past weekend a group of us (Peter, Shin, Robert, John, Harry, and I) went up George Creek (between Lone Pine and Independence in the Eastern Sierra). The...
Is anyone interested in climbing Mount Mallory (13850') up near Lone Pine on some weekend in June? Either as a long day hike or as an overnight trip - I'm not...
hey Kathy congratulations on your trip to Barnard and Trojan Peak. I would love to go that weekend but I'm already heading to Yosemite. I could definitely do...
Dan, I met some of your "3-in-3" hikers a couple of weeks ago on Baldy. They are, indeed, a spirited group. Is it true that you earned a new nickname? . . ....
Dan: I checked out your website - It looks like your 3-in-3 hikers have been having some fun out in the mountains. Have a great time on San Gorgonio this...
Norma and aviaprk - I can do it as an overnight trip on June 7/8, a day hike on June 7, or as a day hike on June 14th. Do any of these options work for either...
June 14th could work for me except i would then have to drive all the way from LA for just a dayhike. Last time I did that i went through quite an ordeal...
june 7th would work best for me, kathy. norma Kathy <kathleenwing@...> wrote: Norma and aviaprk - I can do it as an overnight trip on June 7/8, a day...
